Abstract
Calcific myonecrosis is a late complication of a previous trauma which presents as a calcified fusiforme mass on an x-ray film. It is affecting mostly the anterior compartment of the lower leg. 43 cases have been reported in the literature and are reviewed. The current authors report a case of calcific myonecrosis with calcific tenosynovitis of the tibialis anterior muscle. Precipitated hydroxyapatite crystals were found by ultrasound-guided aspiration, the lesion was then treated by injection of corticosteroids and an anesthetic.
